Yesterday we visited the Museum of Mexican History and saw the special exhibition of marine fossils. Monterrey, although presently a mountaineous city, used to be a large sea in prehistoric times; this is the reason why marine fossils have been discovered in the area.
Our guide was not quite adequate, rushing us through the exhibits and barely outlining the historical context. We had fortunately studied the history of Mexico at EGADE, which helped keep us focused and unfrustrated during the visit.
We dined again at Las Monjitas, and then went on to a Latin club to release our energies.
Today I was supposed to go with the group to Zacatecas, a colonial city 6 hours away from Monterrey, but my stomach is not feeling well, so I prefered to stay in the dorm and have some rest. Looking forward to the trip to Merida next weekend! Hugs!
